Panchang
Today is Dwadashi of Krishna Paksha in Kartika month, with the Moon in Purva Phalguni Nakshatra. It is observed as Dhanteras, Krishna Pradosh Vrat and Govatsa Dwadashi. Rahu Kaal: 4:06 pm–5:32 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:23 am to 12:09 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 15 October 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Dwadashi, from 10:29 pm (prev day) to 07:17 pm, followed by Trayodashi, from 07:17 pm to 03:46 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Kartika (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Phalguni, from 06:39 am (prev day) to 01:59 am (next day), then Uttara Phalguni, from 01:59 am (next day) to 11:10 pm (next day) on Sunday, 15 October 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Sunday) runs from 04:06 pm to 05:32 pm. It is a period of about 90 minutes that is traditionally avoided for starting new ventures; its timing depends on the weekday and on local sunrise and sunset, so it differs from city to city.
In Ayodhya on Sunday, 15 October 2028, sunrise is at 06:00 am and sunset at 05:32 pm; moonrise is at 02:41 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:23 am to 12:09 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 08:53 am–10:20 am; Amrit 10:20 am–11:46 am; Shubh 01:13 pm–02:39 pm. Choghadiya divides the day and the night into eight parts each; Amrit, Shubh and Labh are the auspicious ones.
The Panchang is computed for the exact coordinates of Ayodhya (26.79°N, 82.20°E) from the real positions of the Sun and Moon. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are shown with their start and end times, in Ayodhya's local time.
“Panchang” means “five limbs”: tithi (lunar day), vaar (weekday), nakshatra (the lunar mansion the Moon occupies), yoga (a Sun–Moon angular combination) and karana (half of a tithi). Together with Rahu Kaal, Abhijit Muhurat and choghadiya, they are used to choose favourable times for prayers, travel and new beginnings.
